So the greatest common factor 444,708 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 876,106
2 | 876, 106 |
438, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 438 x 53 = 46428
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/46428
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 444/876,708/106 is 12/46428
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 876,106 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(876,106) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(876,106) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(876,106) = ( 876 × 106 ) / 2
LCM(876,106) = 92856 / 2
LCM(876,106) = 46428
